Cohen & Steers Quality Income Realty Fund, Inc. Announces Terms of Transferable Rights Offering

NEW YORK, June 8, 2026 – Cohen & Steers Quality Income Realty Fund, Inc. (NYSE: RQI) (the “Fund”) announced today that its Board of Directors has approved the terms of the issuance of transferable rights (“Rights”) to the holders of the Fund’s common stock (par value $0.001 per share), as of the record date, June 18, 2026 (the “Record Date”). Holders of these Rights will be entitled to subscribe for additional shares of common stock (the “Offer”). The Offer to acquire additional shares of common stock will be made only by means of a prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus, and this announcement does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any of the Fund’s securities.

Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc. (the “Advisor”) believes that incremental investments in key sectors within listed and private real estate can potentially support the distribution rate and enhance portfolio performance for all common stockholders.

Mathew Kirschner, Portfolio Manager, U.S. Real Estate at Cohen & Steers, said:

“We believe listed and private real estate are attractively valued compared with stocks and bonds, reflecting the idea that real estate has repriced and is in the early stages of a new cycle. Powerful themes—a retail renaissance, digital transformation, and aging populations—are converging with limited supply to create compelling investment opportunities across real estate. This rights offering provides investors with the potential to capitalize on these opportunities.”

A portion of the proceeds from the Offer may be allocated to investments in private commercial real estate but will typically not exceed 10% of the Fund’s managed assets.  Additionally, the Offer provides potential to invest in new opportunities without the need to sell existing portfolio positions, which may reduce taxable events for common stockholders. It also creates potential for increased liquidity and trading volume of the Fund’s shares of common stock as well as providing common stockholders an opportunity to buy new common shares below market price. Importantly, the Advisor (and not the Fund) will pay all offering expenses, including the solicitation and dealer manager fees, in support of the Offer.

Certain key terms of the Offer are as follows:

• Common stockholders on the Record Date (“Record Date Stockholders”) will receive one transferable Right for each share of common stock owned.

• Three Rights are required to purchase one newly issued share of common stock at the Subscription Price (defined below). The Fund will not issue fractional shares, so Record Date Stockholders holding fewer than three Rights will be entitled to subscribe for one full share of common stock.

• The Subscription Price will be determined by the Fund upon the expiration of the Offer, which is currently expected to be July 15, 2026, unless the Fund extends the Offer (the “Expiration Date”). The Subscription Price will be based upon a formula equal to the higher of 92.5% of the average market price on Expiration Date and the four preceding trading days on the NYSE or 90% of the average of net asset value on Expiration Date and the four preceding trading days (the “Subscription Price”).

• Record Date Stockholders who fully exercise all Rights initially issued to them will be permitted to subscribe for additional shares of common stock that were not subscribed for by other Record Date Stockholders at the Subscription Price (“over-subscription privilege”). Investors who are not Record Date Stockholders, but who otherwise acquire Rights, are not entitled to subscribe for any additional shares of common stock. Over-subscription shares may only be acquired if there are unexercised Rights.  If sufficient shares of common stock are not available to honor all over-subscription requests, unsubscribed shares of common stock will be allocated pro rata among those Record Date Stockholders who over-subscribe based on the number of shares of common stock they owned on the Record Date.

• The Rights are expected to trade “when issued” on the NYSE beginning on June 17, 2026, and the Fund’s shares of common stock are expected to trade “ex-Rights” on the NYSE beginning on June 18, 2026. The Rights are expected to begin trading for normal settlement on the NYSE (NYSE: RQI RT) on or about June 22, 2026.

• The Offer is expected to expire at 5:00 PM Eastern Time on July 15, 2026, unless extended.

• The definitive terms of the Offer will be made through a prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus. The final terms of the Offer may be different from those set out above.

• All offering expenses, including sales commissions, will be borne by the Advisor and not the Fund or any of the Fund’s common stockholders.

The Fund expects to maintain its current distribution level following the Offer. The Fund has declared a monthly distribution of $0.090 per share of common stock payable on June 30, 2026, with a record date of June 9, 2026, and a monthly distribution of $0.090 per share of common stock payable on July 31, 2026, with a record date of July 6, 2026. Any shares of common stock issued as a result of the Offer will not be record date shares for the Fund’s monthly distribution to be paid on June 30, 2026 or July 31, 2026, and will not be entitled to receive such distribution.

The Fund expects to mail subscription certificates evidencing the Rights and a copy of the prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus for the Offer to Record Date Stockholders within the United States shortly following the Record Date. Inquiries regarding the Offer should be directed to the Information Agent, Georgeson LLC at 888 812-7762.

Record Date Stockholders who hold shares of common stock through a broker, custodian or trust company can most likely act electronically and should contact such entity to understand their procedure to exercise or sell their Rights as each firm may have different procedures. Please review the offering materials carefully and ensure any decisions are made within the subscription period, and according to your broker’s, custodian, or trust company’s specific closing date, which may be earlier than Expiration Date.

Record Date Stockholders who do not hold shares of common stock through a broker, custodian, or trust company should forward their instructions to either exercise or sell their Rights by completing the subscription certificate and delivering it to the subscription agent for the Offer, together with their payment, at one of the locations indicated on the subscription certificate or in the prospectus supplement.
